I've never seen that before. How is the XML being generated? Manual or dynamic? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] xml whitespace problem

Everything within a CDATA is read exactly as is, I believe -- that's the point of using it. whitespace is the whitespace between tags, not within a CDATA text node, so ignoreWhite shouldn't affect it. I think you'll have to butt your text content up against the [ and ] to make it read right.

Re: [Flashcoders] xml whitespace problem

i thought that could be the case too.. but then i took the CDATA brackets completely out but left the text.. so its just a floating text node now. it still does the same thing.. =( Helen Triolo wrote: Everything within a CDATA is read exactly as is, I believe -- that's the point of using it.

Re: [Flashcoders] xml whitespace problem

you could try setting condenseWhite = true on the textfield that should get rid of the whitespace due to the linebreaks. dunc On 1/24/06, david kraftsow [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: i thought that could be the case too.. but then i took the CDATA brackets completely out but left the text.. so

Re: [Flashcoders] xml whitespace problem

Thanks all. I think I figured out the problem.. this xml causes the spaces: root_1 attr_1=blahblah node_1 Leaf content 1 blah blah blah. /node_1 /root_1 but this doesnt: root_1 attr_1=blahblah node_1Leaf content 1 blah blah blah./node_1 /root_1 I guess that should

Re: [Flashcoders] xml whitespace problem

I had this exact problem just last week. I couldn't figure out a solution, so I simply removed all carriage returns and tabs from the raw XML data. Here's the function that I wrote to clean things up. Simply add on onData event handler to your XML loading and then call this function

Re: [Flashcoders] xml whitespace problem

Nice. condenseWhite does work but only if you are just using the xml content in a text field. For my purposes I needed to do conditional stuff based on the xml -- no text fields involved -- so I had to have the exact strings. Josh Gormley wrote: I had this exact problem just last week. I
